awsome topic Susq. I can remember & relate to just about everything mentioned by everybody.
Acouple nobody mentioned yet....writing very important phone #'s on cigarette packages When drunk in the bar & then forgetting & chucking them out the window on the way home.
Spending 45 minutes to an hour searching for that one brass you inadvertently ejected out into a huge snow drift becaude new brass wasnt just an internet order away.

Oh man can I ever relate to that! How many hours have I wasted looking for one brass in a snow drift. I even remember marking the spot with sticks once so I could look again after the big melt. Ya, only those of us who ordered brass over the phone or by snail mail could appreciate that......
Collecting Marvel comic books. Especially The Hulk, Fantastic Four, and Spider-Man.
Ordering and collecting stamps from the back of those comics. I use to love the horse stamps from Panama.

We lived in Victoria on Allenby ST by Canarvon park a few miles from the ocean but after a good storm Dad would go outside and hose the salt off of the antenna.
As far as the Beatles Dad was “ Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Christ! “
Ours is OOLLDD! Unlike modern meds, the shelf life is forever!
And remember ” You Asked For It! “
Sunday was always spent with Walt Disney watching Disneyland.
Carol Burnett Harvey Korman Tim Conway and Vicky Lawrence were the ones that made my parents laugh the most.
Truly comedic genius in all of them, when they would start laughing(live remember) and try and compose themselves for their lines, was hilarious and of course Conway is trying to keep them laughing.
